how do I reuse the image? Again, fairly new Actually you can see it by looking at my example above. ... local Asteroid = Object:extend() local image = love.graphics.newImage("assets/asteroid.png") function Asteroid:new(x, y) self.image = image ... also, not sure what you mean by... You cr...

Seems to be a problem with your system. Can you post your specs, especially graphics card/chip and drivers. btw. the way you use classes seems to be pretty weird. You create a new object table inside your Asteroid class to handle them but the sense of a class is to be able to create an instance of ...

for some odd reason, whenever I run my program (not willing to call it a game yet) the image I have set to spawn will start spawning, and then after a few seconds(30 or so) the images will blank out and be replaced with white squares, can someone take a look at the code and see if they can find out ...

So, i took a look at your project, and i noticed right off the bat you're trying to call Asteroid.new(). Unfortunately, Lua in itself is not object oriented (correct me if i'm wrong) but that can be implemented. So, do you want to do object orienting yourself (code the constructors and stuff) or ju...

Ohh, see I've heard that you should use libraries like "classis" for objects, but every resource I saw made it sound optional, didn't know lua wasnt OO. They are in fact optional if you don't want to think about how to use tables and metatables to create classes and inheritance in lua. Pe...

Try not to cringe at the code, lol

for as long as I've been studying programming (on and off for a few years) I've never understood how classes work and how to "call them" or whatever, like if I make an enemy class and try to add it to main, i always get some kind of error and just dont understand, which is why ive never ma...

How do I set an angle to an object? Basically I have a rectangle that, when the game starts, I want to make move in a random direction, how would I accomplish this? Create a random angle with 2*math.pi*love.math.random() (that's a random number from 0 to twice pi, which is a whole circle in radians...
